    ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 Please help Pullet or Cockerell? Brahma and GLO! Opinions please 🙏 ❤️ 💙 💜 💖

    I would bet on both being pullets. That said, I had to wait until my handsome fella was almost 4 months before I was sure he was a roo, that lovely cushion comb Brahmas have can be deceptive.

    Which Brahma color?

    I'd also say either buff or a buff/light hybrid. I have a young roo that looks mostly like a light brahma, but his hackle feathers are very lightly tinted buff.

    Duck pool filter??

    I have a similar problem. I have a large flock of ducks (20ish, haven't counted) plus a pair of geese. I plan to buy a large stock tank this winter when I have everyone corraled in a smaller pen and set it up with, at a minimum, a spigot and hose at the bottom to make draining and cleaning it...

    Silver Appleyard Duckling with Dark Bill

    I have a large mixed flock, my oldest ones are a female Mallard, a female buff, a male buff, and a male Pekin. We kept three of what they hatched last year: a female buff colored, a male mixed buff/mallard coloring (he's very pretty 😆) and a male Mallard colored. We have added new ducklings...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Russian Orloff

    About the same age as yours. I got him in April when he was perhaps a week old. I alsogot three barred rocks (was told they were Lav Orps 😆) and three RIRs. Lost two of the RIRs and one Barred to a stray cat. They were all supposed to be pullets though so I was quite surprised when one...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Russian Orloff

    I picked up a Russian Orloff from Tractor Supply. I'm reasonably certain it is a rooster now and am wondering how noisy of a bird they are. I would like to keep him but my neighbors (I live In town) work late hours and I dont want to be waking them up at 5 in the morning. I can build him a...

    This Duck Doesn't Lay Eggs

    Two years ago I purchased two ducklings. One is a female mallard who lays regularly for about two months each year before stopping. The other is a buff who has never laid an egg yet has none of the identifying traits of a drake. So is it male or female.... Because my mallard hen is trying sit...

    Meat birds

    Meat birds

    Yeah, I know I let them go quite a bit longer than is suggested but I'm glad I did. Weight after butcher was somewhere around 10 lbs for all 6. Meat was tender and very juicy. I wanted them to reach their full growth, not just standard butcher weight. Happy to see the other suggestions. I'll...

    Meat birds

    Good point with the cornish x. I had six last year and butchered them at about four months and they were just starting to crow. Which was funny as hell, since it sounded more like a squeaky mouse! I unno, though. I'm not a big fan of cornish x. I think they are ugly and stupid. I suppose...

    Meat birds

    I live in town and would like to raise a few meat birds next year. Living in town means I can't do roosters. Could I feed large breed hens the same way I would roosters and still get the same amount of meat on them?

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I got 3 RIR and 3 Golden Sex-Links this year in April. They just started laying two weeks ago and I've got nearly three dozen, almost medium sized, eggs already. So happy!

    California - Northern

    <---SHE LIVES! So ... I haven't posted here recently. I would like some help though. My mother really likes the Phoenix roosters, and she was going to get one through a friend who knew someone who was trying to rehome one . . . but the roo got out of it's pen and never returned. So now, I'm...
